RDS OPERATIONS
What you can do with RDS EON
RDS (Radio Data System) allows FM stations to send an additional signal along with their
regular programme signals. For example, the stations send their station names, as well as
ENGLISH
information about what type of programme they broadcast, such as sports or music, etc.
Another advantage of RDS function is called “EON (Enhanced Other Networks).” The EON
indicator lights up while receiving an FM station with the EON data. By using the EON data
sent from a station, you can tune into a different station of a different network broadcasting
your favorite programme or traffic announcement while listening to another programme or to
another source such as CD.
By receiving the RDS signals, this unit can do the following:
• Tracing the same programme automatically (Network-Tracking Reception)
• Standby Reception of TA (Traffic Announcement) or your favorite programme
• PTY (Programme Type) search
• TA (Traffic Announcement) search
• And some other functions
Tracing the same programme automatically (NetworkTracking Reception)
When driving in an area where FM reception is not good, the tuner built in this unit automatically
tunes in another RDS station, broadcasting the same programme with stronger signals. So,
you can continue to listen to the same programme in its finest reception, no matter where you
drive. (See the illustration on the next page.)
Two types of the RDS signals are used to make Network-Tracking Reception work correctly
— PI (Programme Identification) and AF (Alternative Frequency) data.
Without receiving these data correctly from the RDS station you are listening to, NetworkTracking Reception will not operate.

To use Network-Tracking Reception, press and hold TP/RDS (Traffic

press and hold the button, Network-Tracking Reception modes change as
follows:
Mode 1 Mode 2 Mode 3
Mode 1 (AF:on / REG:off)
Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to “off.”
Switches to another station within the same network when the receiving
signals from the current station become weak.
Note:
In this mode, the programme may differ from the one currently received.
Mode 2 (AF:on / REG:on)
Network-Tracking is activated with Regionalization set to “on.”
Switches to another station, within the same network, broadcasting the same
programme when the receiving signals from the current station become weak.
Mode 3 (AF:off / REG:off)
Network-Tracking is deactivated.
The same programme can be received on different frequencies.

Using Standby Reception
Standby Reception allows the unit to switch temporarily to your favorite programme (PTY:
Programme Type) and Traf fic Announcement (T A) from the current source (another FM station
and CD).
ENGLISH
Note:
Standby Reception will not work if you are listening to an AM station.
TA Standby Reception
RDS
TP
• When you press TP/RDS while listening to an FM station, the TP indicator

volume increases to the preset TA volume level and the traffic programme
can be heard (see page 16).
To deactivate the TA standby mode, press TP/RDS again.
PTY Standby Reception

buttons
ENGLISH
Usually when you press the number button, the preset station is tuned in.
However, when the preset station is an RDS station, something different will happen. If the
signals from that preset station are not sufficient for good reception, this unit starts searching
another station broadcasting the same programme as the original preset station is broadcasting,
then if any station broadcasting the same programme is found, the station will be tuned in.

New CDs may have some rough spots around the inner and outer edges.
If such a CD is used, this unit may reject the CD.
To remove these rough spots, rub the edges with a pencil or ball-point
pen, etc.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not insert 8cm (3 3/16") CDs (single CDs) into the loading slot. (Such CDs cannot be

About mistracking:
Mistracking may result from driving on extremely rough roads. This does not damage the
unit and the CD, but will be annoying.
We recommend that you stop CD play while driving on such rough roads.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lens inside the unit in the following cases:
